You might want to explain a bit what that means, it appears a little vague to me. Adult could mean anything that children aren't usually exposed to. It seems to be a rather blanket statement.

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Swamp fan-fiction competition.

Also, how should I proceed with writing this, given that at least one
of my characters is rather profane. I don't want to dumb down the
character just to make the story people-friendly, so is a rating at
the beginning insurance enough?

I was thinking something like:

This story contains graphic violence, course language, and adult situations.

Is that enough?

Also, a novel does not mean that I'll be seeing the zombies taken care of, only that my human interactions will have closure. In fact, I rather intend it to be more like an intro with a little playthrough or
something like that.

Ok. Well, since I don't have info, I'm writing a novel in a series of chapters from First-Person perspectives. I will be including at least one character into the story, who is played by my wife. Perhaps I will
include others. I sincerely hope that this is ok, because I'm on
chapter 15.

Jeremy and others. I play several characters in Swamp. I want to be clear on that, because I will most likely write a unified story for all of them, rather than individual stories for each of them, unless
this is vetoed.

Also, I want to know if it's ok to include other characters in your
story, with their consent.

Finally, I'd like to know, personally, whether you all feel that I should write the story from a shifting first-person point of view, like snippets from three diaries, or if I should write it in limited third-person, like chapters of a novel, with details overlapping and a
conclusion tying it together.

Essentially, overlapping diary entries or a novel style?

Well it's clearly set somewhere in America if nothing else, since the
shops
such as wall mart and K mart, guns etc and the language of the game are
american.

Not a cryticism, just trying to help on location.

Beware the grue!
